And just like that, Super Bowl LVII has come and gone – but the game will live in history forever. From the late-game dramatics orchestrated by the Referee committee, to the post-game praise of Patrick Mahomes’ heroics; Super Bowl LVII was definitely one for the books. And how could it not be? At least, for both the victorious Chiefs, and the oh-so-close Eagles… However, for the other 30 teams that weren’t involved, it was still a momentous event – whether it be out of spite like the salty 49ers, a step further for their next Head Coach like the Colts, or…

Keenan Allen release? From the Chargers? You mean the team that finally established 2 above par weapons for budding superstar Justin Herbert to play with? Yup, I’m sure you’ve heard the rumors – rumors which have gotten so much traction, even Bleacher Report wrote about it. And, well, there’s validity to the notion, as the Chargers would save $17.5 million from the move. Let me repeat: $17.5 MILLION Now, don’t get me wrong – I really hope this doesn’t happen. But in today’s sports climate filled with rushed rebuilds and the persistent urge to add as many stars as you possibly…

We’re almost a week away from Super Bowl LVII, and the moment we’ve all been waiting for is almost here. After a roller coaster of a season full of twists and turns – the failed Russell Wilson experiment, the Aaron Rodgers saga in Green Bay, and the pre-season favorites falling short (yes, you, Buffalo). And yet, while the Eagles are a bit of a surprise, no one can pretend to be shocked to see Mahomes back in the big game, suiting up for his third time in this year’s Super Bowl LVII. Sure, the “divorce” with Tyreek Hill may have…

As the game of the year approaches, let’s take a look back into Super Bowl History… where past, meets present. Year after year, each contest throughout Super Bowl history inevitably features both stars; as well as role players who come up HUGE for their team. And this year, we’re lucky enough to see a couple of star-studded rosters, stacked with above-par players who can make or break the game. While it takes a whole team to win the big game, as we take a stroll down the lane of Super Bowl history – we’ll find plenty of high level players…

The NFL Conference Championships are here, and it should be one hell of a Sunday filled with lots of scoring in Kansas City, and defensive showdown in Philly. The stars are here in Mahomes, Kelce, Chase, Burrow, McCaffery, Samuel, Hurts, and Brown – but which non-stars are liable to their team’s success? After all, while stars make a world’s difference for each respective team – there are 22 men who will undoubtedly impact the game. Patrick Mahomes can’t throw it to Travis Kelce every down, nor can Joe Burrow to Jamar Chase. And Jalen Hurts can’t do everything himself… can he? So,…

Aaron Rodgers to Jets? Did Aaron slip us the ayahuasca? What’s going on? Well, nothing… yet. But, with the recent head-scratching Jets hire of Nathaniel Hackett, the Aaron Rodgers to Jets rumors have officially ramped up a notch. The writing has been on the wall for a “break up” between the Packers and their  nearly 20-year signal caller – as the tensions publicly raised last off-season amidst a contract dispute. The funny thing is about the Aaron Rodgers to Jets talks, and more specifically, these dramatics of the Green Bay Packers is… we’ve seen this movie before. Literally, almost this exact…

Just like that, the NFL divisional round has come, and gone. For four power-house teams, this past week has served as a glimpse of what may be ahead next week. For those who lost in this NFL divisional round – their games may serve as a teaser of what may come next year. Whether it’s regarding the uproaring of praise that Joe Burrow has received, or the disapproval many are plowing onto Dak – here’s what we learned from the NFL divisional round: NFL Divisional Round: Bengals vs Bills Joe Burrow is dangerous, but their weapons are heavily underrated. 49ers get…

After an exciting offseason, a roller coaster of a season, and a weird last game – the playoffs are here: and so are the Chargers wild card odds. Sitting at -1 according to SI.com, the Chargers have the betting edge – but not by much. Can you really be surprised, given how the first matchup went between these two? It was the game that truly seemed to solidify beginning of the “new era” Jacksonville Jaguars – with a scary ground game with Travis Etienne, solid coaching for a change, and a prominent pass attack led by the 2021 #1 overall…

The playoffs haven’t even started, and yet the Chargers 2022 Playoff run is already off to a bad start. Many are pointing the finger at Head Coach Brandon Staley for playing his stars all of the way through the third quarter. Why, you ask? According to The Athletic, Staley was quoted saying: “We were trying to compete in the game, and we only have 48 guys on the team that are active for the game,” Staley explained. “And so we wanted to make sure that they went a good ways in this football game and competed at a high level,…

Can anyone else remember the last time the Chargers playoff outlook seemed this strong? How about the last time the Chargers had this talented of a roster, top to bottom? If you’re a Bolts fan, you might know exactly which team I’m talking about. But, to everyone else – here it is: The 14-2, AFC West Champs – the 2006 San Diego Chargers. Yep, the same team that was ranked #1 in the NFL in offense… and defense. Not only was that offense led by Phillip Rivers on the upswing of his prime, with two other future Hall of Famers by his side…
